Will be doing dinner with the family, and spending time with them. Other than that might watch the Boston pops do the yearly 1812 overture thing on T.V. as well as some online gaming and headphone listening.

Actually, the latter is the only "bad" thing about it IMO... it is infact fun, but it's also rather frivolous and shouldn't be a true holiday IMO.

P.S. happy new year to everyone

Dang, I'm on Alaska Standard Time so I think I'm probably going to be one of the last people on this forum to shout out the New Year. We've still got a whole 8 hours to go.

It is just one digit that changes in the year, what is the big deal?

 

[DLeeWebb]

A little under two hours to go, but I wish a Happy 2008 to Head-Fiers around the world! We might have a lot more money in the bank if we had never found this place, but we would be much poorer!

I like it but don't like it. I think people do make too much out of it, partying like crazy, etc. Because it's supposed to be this fun, festive night surrounded by friends and family, it actually becomes very depressive and lonely for some people.

While I also understand the whole "it's a new year, make a resolution thing", if you have enough will power and determination you should be able to make resolutions any time of the year, and not use the new year to make an excuse to have a resolution.

I'm off to my parents in a few minutes to ring in the new year with my family. I won't be lonely but I am a little depressed right now for reasons I won't go into. Hopefully I won't drown my sorrows and overdo it with the booze.

At least I get to blow the Millennium Whistle at Midnight. It's this REALLY LOUD whistle I bought back in 1999 which is how it got it's name.

Hau`oli Makahiki Hou to everyone here. Just a little more than three hours to go before 2008 comes in and I'm currently ringing it in with some fireworks.
